The New York-New England Cement and Lime Co. started its 

 new Portland cement mill during the summer. The quarries and 

 kilns are situated at Greenport near Hudson. The company also 

 uses the old plant of the Hudson Cement Co. at the river side as a 

 supplementary mill, the two plants being connected by a private 

 railroad. The capacity of the works is the largest of any in the 

 State. 



The Knickerbocker Portland Cement Co. is expected to begin 

 operations this summer. The limestone quarries which are already 

 opened are situated on Becraft mountain in the same vicinity as 

 those of the former company, in the Coeymans and Manlius for- 

 mations. The plant is designed for a capacity of 3000 barrels a 

 day and will include three rotary kilns, each 10 by 175 feet. Ship- 

 ping facilities into New England states are provided by the Boston 

 & Albany Railroad, and the company has a private road connecting 

 with the main line of the New York Central and with the Hudson 

 river.
